Genetics: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

[TheOnlyRyan]

Painframe hit the nail on the head, really. The only problem, really, is trying to figuring out what to put in that would encourage this sort of thing without mass rage and a severe deficit of geneticists. Lowering the local monkey population would be a good start, as would making the gene scramblers much more dangerous. You can get an absolutely absurd number of mutations from the monkeys you have available from the get-go, so maybe limiting that would encourage using people instead of monkeys? I dunno, I'm throwing ideas at a wall and seeing what sticks.

In my experience the only people who are interested in being tested on are either your partner, or people who literally run to Genetics asking to be tested on.
Only to bug out the second the 1 or 2 powers in their genes have been found and activated, leaving you back at square 1.

I'd also like to point out you gain the ability to research injectors through the amount you scan, lowering monkeys would actually drastically hamper research in my opinion.

I can only imagine running out of med-bay and asking people to come back to Genetics to be stuck in a lockable machine wouldn't really work.

At least it wouldn't work if Genetics stays the way It is now, with the rather slow research and lack of injectors early on.
